"It's a good thing that this Yin Yang Master-sama trusts you and wants to entrust you with such an important task. I feel that she's a sincere person, and if you accept her request and respond to her expectations, you'll definitely receive an excellent reward. "
'That's only if I can respond to her expectations.' Seiji retorted.
A newbie who only learned how to fight at the last minute wants to become the ace in a duel?
This was just like a newbie who hadn't played video games for long wanting to be the main force in a team battle; it was complete nonsense!
"Although I'm not sure about the situation, since Yin Yang Master-sama made such a request, it means that she believes that you can do it, so don't underestimate yourself and show some confidence! I'll also do my best to support you. "
'Eh, you can hear me even though I didn't say anything? And you can even understand my retorts? '
"As long as you think it in your heart, I'll be able to understand what you're trying to say."
'I see … By the way, I think you misunderstood. She actually trusts you, not me.'
"I am your strength! Trusting me is the same as trusting you! "
Seiji was rendered speechless.
"Haruta-kun … do you still feel that I'm going overboard?" The Grand Mistress couldn't help but smile wryly at his silence.
"That's true, even if you have an excellent bonded spirit, wanting you to be the ace right from the start … there should be a limit to how unreasonable you can be."
"I apologize, I was too impulsive, just treat it as …"
Seiji sighed.
"President, didn't you say that it's a 'backup plan?' Does that mean that it might not be useful? "
"… Yes." Summer Night nodded. "It's just a backup plan."
"What's the possibility of it actually being useful?"
"It's very low, and I hope that it won't be useful … It's just that I saw that you have this power, so I wanted to prepare accordingly."
"Prepare thoroughly, just in case, is that right?"
"That's exactly what I mean." Summer Night looked directly at him. "Even if it's only a low possibility, it's still a possibility, so I need to confirm your wishes."
Seiji fell silent once again.
Moments later.
"Alright, I accept." He sighed. "I don't think it'll come in handy, and I can't guarantee that I'll be able to do a good job when it does come in handy. But it's never wrong to be more prepared."
"Thank you, Haruta-kun." Summer Night thanked him sincerely and smiled.
"Oh oh, this Onmyoji's smile is so beautiful! It's worth fighting for such a moving beauty! "
In Seiji's mind, Ah Guang shouted these words with his blood boiling.
This guy was only interested in pleasing beautiful girls, right?
"It is a man's nature to pursue the beauty of young virgins!"
Alright, I've confirmed it. You're exactly that kind of person.
"Isn't Lord Seiji a kindred spirit? You also admire this lady's beauty, such as her breasts … "
Stop! Do not pry into my true thoughts! People have their own privacy, don't you understand?
Seiji strongly retorted to his own spirit.
At any rate, under the encouragement of this seemingly powerful yet unreliable heroic spirit, he agreed to Grand Mistress Natsuya's request.
After that, Summer Night told him about the heroic spirit's true name and identity. She also told him to go practice with Hitaka so that he could get used to his new Spirit-branded Retainer's power and fighting style.
During the final preparation time, Summer Night also intended to use the "elimination method" in order to minimize any unexpected factors.
Seiji didn't need to do such a thing now that he had the ability to transform his power. He originally wanted to refuse, but in order to make them feel more at ease, he went along with them.
And so, he had a special experience …
Time passed just like that.
…
Night time, Yuen Hwa Secondary High School.
Seiji and Natsuya stood together on the rooftop railing and looked down at the city below them … he felt that he was rather cool.
He didn't stand on such a high place to act cool, but rather to get a clearer view of the battlefield. But it had to be said that standing on top of the railing and feeling the night breeze gave him the mysterious illusion that he was a master.
Well, compared to ordinary people, he was indeed in the realm of the "abnormal." Just the fact that he was standing on top of the railing was enough to astonish ordinary people.
It was the same for his attire.
He was wearing a gray windbreaker, a tight-fitting T-shirt, and long pants. The chest, shoulders, elbows, and knees all had silver armor engraved with runes and runes, giving it a mysterious feeling. At first glance, it looked like a cosplay outfit, but the exquisiteness and texture of the armor were clearly better than normal clothing.
Although it would be embarrassing to walk on a crowded street like this, it would definitely be cool. At the very least, many people would turn to look at him.
As for the Grand Mistress beside him, it was no longer a matter of how many people would turn to look at him. It was a matter of whether or not he would cause a traffic accident.
Seiji had assumed that Summer Night would be wearing a Yin Yang Master's "hunting attire," the type that he had seen on the Spirit Image — a tall black hat and a white wide-sleeved robe.
But the clothes that Summer Night actually wore caused him to be stunned for quite a while.
She was actually wearing tights!?
That's right, tights! Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that it was almost tights. At first glance, it resembled Overwatch's butt … whoops, it was the type of clothing that some female characters in Overwatch wore in Overwatch. It was just that they added a short cape and a short skirt.
Wanhua Summer Night had an excellent figure! Excellent! Excellent!! Important things had to be repeated three times.
She had the best figure out of all the beautiful girls that Seiji had ever seen with his own eyes!
Just by wearing the Yuen Hwa Secondary girls' uniform, this Grand Mistress had an incredibly alluring air about her. It was just that her stern expression and cold authority made it difficult for people to have any evil thoughts. That was why people would unknowingly overlook her … er, special charisma when interacting with her.
But overlooking didn't mean forgetting.
It was impossible to forget.
Occasionally, Seiji would realize that he was facing an incredibly alluring Grand Mistress. However, he had good self-control, so he wouldn't have any strange thoughts.
But for such a beautiful girl with such an alluring figure to suddenly appear in front of him in tights, it really impacted his sense of reason!
It was as if a tsunami had crashed into a dam.
No kidding! Summer Night's destructive power was far too astonishing. It was to the point where Seiji immediately averted his gaze after he regained his senses. He didn't even dare to look at the details of her clothing, even though he was still rather curious about it.
Her tights seemed to have runes, spell formations, and wondrous runes that resembled beautiful flower patterns on them.
As for the cape and skirt … fortunately, with these two items as a cover, the overall attractiveness wasn't off the charts. However, due to their beauty, elegance, and subtle length, they actually increased her attractiveness in a different way.
If she went to a place with many people like this, it was highly likely that she would cause an accident! Seiji truly believed this.
'You're too much of a distraction, Grand Mistress.'
Summer Night didn't know what Seiji was thinking. She was currently focusing almost all of her attention on the upcoming duel.
She didn't feel like she would lose, but it was inevitable that she would be nervous. An appropriate amount of nervousness would also be beneficial to her ability.
As for the boy beside her … Haruta-kun didn't seem to be nervous at all. Was it because he was a newborn calf, or was his mental fortitude quite good?
It seemed that she didn't need to worry too much about him.
What she found inconceivable was that although Haruta-kun was a complete newbie, a temporary Spirit-branded Retainer, he gave her a sense of security by standing by her side.
It felt like … no matter what happened, as long as he was here, she didn't need to worry about anything.
'Why do I have such a feeling?'
Summer Night didn't understand.
She shouldn't think too much about it at this time.
Suddenly, she noticed something.
